Tux Clercland (Ohio) Press, of Febrnary 23d, 1883, published an account of a fatal’ surgical operation which caused a great commotion among medical :men throughout the whole country, Dr. Thayer, the most eminent surgeon in Cleveland, pronouncing it scandalous. It appears that a Mrs. King had been suffering for many years from some disease of the stomach, which had resisted the treatment of all the physicians in attendance.’ The disease commenced with a slight derangement of the digestion, with a poor appetite, followed by a peculiar indescribable distress in the stomach, a feeling . that has been described as a faint “all gone’ sensation, a. sticky slime collecting about . . . able taste. This sensation was not removed by food, but, on the contrary, it was increased. number of Chinese mining camps} After a while: the hands and . feet became cold and sticky— a cold perspiration, _ There was a constant tired and languid feeling. Then followed a dreadful nervoustiess, — with gloomy forebo tings. Finally the patient was unable to retain any food whatever, and there was constant pain in the abdomen. All prescribed remedies failing to give relief, a consultation was held, when it was decided that the patient had a cancer in the stomach, aud in order tosave the patient’s lifé an operation was justifiable. Accordingly, on the 22d of February, 1883, the operation was periormed by Dr. Vance inthe presence of Dr. Yuckerman, Dr. Perrier, Dr. Arms, Dr. Gordon, Dr. Capner, end Dr. Hallivvell of the Police Board. ‘The operation consisted in laying open the cavity of the abdomen and e ing the stomach and bowels, Wheu this had been done an examination of the organs was made, but tothe horror and dismay of the doctors there was no cancer to be 4uund, The patient did not have a cancer. When -too late the medical men discover“ that they had made a terriv!¢ mistake; but they sewed tue parts together and dressed the wound that they had inade, but the poor woman sank from exhaustion and died and 500 days each.
